Incredible Solar Flares

Solar Flares
Sunspot #798 is returning from a trip around our star with a vengance. In the last 4 days, it has launched (4) X-Class solar flares. The most powerful of these was an incredible X17 event... the fourth largest ever recorded. If this can just keep it up for a few days... until it is Earth-facing... we could have one heck of a light show. Keep an eye on the northern horizon and on Spaceweather.com for the latest information.
